Solicitor's letter sent with copy to the mortgage company, are they likely to reply and any way of keeping the pressure on for a successful conclusion?

Thanks for the advice, I will write as proscribed and let you know how I get on. It is most annoying as I always pay on the nail and I contacted the freeholder last June.

The solicitor who acted...

I've told her to come round and will help her do it online this evening,

Many Thanks.

The registration for online filing said about the three months from issue but it has not been issued as yet, how long is that likely to take?

Thanks Claymore, she would just like to get it sorted sooner rather than later.

Coincidentally I had a query about my own tax return, but it was for 2010-11, they are slow checking!

Good point! I will get her to do so.

Yes profit will be less than personal allowance

Yes 2011-12

Cheers for that, the notice has been given, am just wating to see if anyone is there to let them in.

I meant do they have to write a few times before demanding entry but your post seems to say they only have to do it the once. I assume if they get no reply they then go down the warrant route?

How many notices and how long does a council have to wait before forcing entry into a property under Sec 239?

That is the route we have followed and the local council have issued a sec 36 notice, now we just have to force the leaseholder to do the work or do it ourselves and charge the flat getting acces is...

Thanks ram,

I thought a solicitors letter would carry a bit more weight, especially with a copy sent to the mortgage company and yes it does have provision re section 146 costs.

Got a similar problem here and am now up to solicitor No 3 who has come back suggesting we are not going to get far with forfeiture. I know that but just want a letter threatening it sent. It has...

Thank You, will do!

You misunderstand me, they would be saying it to me as is happening I suspect in an adjoining property.

45002, that is my worry!

I mean saying no rent is being payed as a way of avoiding landlord's responsibilites.

I agree with this solution and it would also allow you to change the storage heaters to modern slimline efficient ones, I would put a fan assisted one in the lounge which has two supplies so when the...
